Tubby Beaver 209 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 What happened to the bike plan? Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 theres a bus and its running. Seemed epic to cycle it when there was only the choice of cycling or not going. That showed dedication. With a bus actually running it just shows pig headed stupidity in the face of reality. Plus its peeing it down today, whereas tonight its gonna snow. So why spend my morning cycling and then riding knackered for a few hours in the rain then paying 3000 yen for a place to kip before cycling home in the snow tomorrow, when i could spend 3000 yen on the bus there and back, get up at a normal hour, arrive relatively fresh around 10am and ride in fresh fluffy pow for a few hours before popping back home all happy for work on monday?

Chriselle 158 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 gammy.....=......gimpy. Slowly getting lingo down. Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 actually a gammy limp technically could mean either a limp that is gammy, or a not that great a limp (which could be a bad limp, or a non-limp) now i think about it. Innt English briilliant! Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 If English is easy, as many Japanese say (whereas Nihongo is muzukashii), why are most Japanese so poor at English. That needs to go in the ponder thread perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites
